How
to Lower Cholesterol Naturally with Hemp Hearts

How to lower cholesterol naturally is as simple as
looking in your
pantry and examining your fitness regime. Cholesterol is a waxy, fat
like substance that presents itself naturally in cell walls and
membranes everywhere in your body. Your body uses this fat to produce
hormones, vitamin D and the bile acids that help to digest it.

It is absorbed in the intestines and then proceeds
to the
liver. In order for the fat to enter the delivery system, while it is
in the liver, it is split into two different types of fat, cholesterol
and triglycerides.

Once this transformation takes place, the two
types of fat are
packed into vehicles, then carried to fat cells throughout the body
using the bloodstream.

These vehicles are called lipoproteins. There are
three types of lipoproteins:

1. Very Low Density Lipoproteins (VLDL)

2. Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL)

3. High Density Lipoproteins (HDL)

Under normal circumstances, the bloodstream does
a very
efficient job of carrying the LDL and HDL Lipoproteins throughout the
body.

Problems arise when there is an over abundance of
fat in your
bloodstream. The cholesterol deposited by the low density lipoproteins,
(LDL) leads to a narrowing of the blood vessels and arteries of the
heart which could result in stroke or heart disease. This is called
atherosclerosis.

This is why LDL is known as “bad
fats.” HDL usually collects
the bad cholesterol and takes it back to the liver. That’s
why HDL is
known as “good fats.”

Hemp
oil is second only to canola oil for
their low content of saturated fats.
